Charity information

Urdd Gobaith Cymru

Mae'r Urdd yn rhoi cyfle i blant a phobl ifanc i ddysgu ac i gymdeithasu drwy gyfrwng y Gymraeg. The Urdd gives children and young people the opportunity to learn and socialise through the medium of Welsh.

Our aim is to provide children and young people in Wales with an opportunity to live exciting lives through the medium of Welsh. In doing this, we strengthen the sense of belonging to a local and a wider community, and to our nation.

The Urdd offers numerous opportunities from Eisteddfodau, sporting competitions and clubs, volunteering schemes and the humanitarian projects, the magazines and the residential visits to our centres in Glan Llyn in Bala, Llangrannog in Ceredigion and in the Wales Millenium Centre in Cardiff. We have over 10,000 volunteers and supporters who ensure that the work carried out by the Urdd continues to be exciting and relevant to the lives of children and young people of Wales and beyond.
